U13s win Missouri State Cup

Congratulations to the Sporting Kansas City Juniors U13s who won the Missouri State Cup tournament with a 5-1 win over Scott Gallagher earlier today. The first goal of the game took place in the first half from a right-footed strike from 18 yards out into the lower left corner by Logan Lucas in the 23rd minute. The first half ended with a tied score of 1-1, but the U13s would go on to score four more times in the second half. Second half goals were scored by Trevor Cissell 19 minutes into the half on right-footed blast from 8 yards out, Absalom Solorio two minutes later, John Liesman scored 28 minutes into the second half with an assist from Solorio, and Cole McClagan scored the fifth and final goal. With this win, the U13s move on to the Region II Championships in Fox Cities, Wisconsin, that will take place June 24-29. More information on the Region II Championships can be found here.
